My parents thought I was crazy when I painted my bedroom 1950's turquoise with white trim at the age of 15(10 years ago) The other night I had a dream of being in my Grandmother's house, finding her old turquoise flour/sugar canisters. For some reason they had little white tikis all over them! I was in heaven! So now I'm on this big hunt to find a mint set of turquoise canisters, just like my grandmothers(but without the tikis of course) I'm definitely going to be mixing styles in my house too, the dining room being 40's-60's, the kitchen has a lot of brushed stainless and of course the tiki room which will be housed in an adjoining greenhouse or sunroom.
